Hi everyone.
Just want to get a overview of people's opinion on sacrificing concepts during practice.
Given the time constraints in some people's lives (me included), I find myself at times feeling like I have to forgo certain concepts with practice.
Obviously, if I could practice for hours and hours daily to cover as many concepts as possible, that would be great. But I find that I have approx 2 hrs daily.
So I spend 30 mins on stick control
30 mins working on various grooves from Groove Essentials 1.0
30 mins working on rudiments on the kit incorporating the bass drum/double pedal as fills or grooves. The Rudiments I cover are singles, doubles, parradiddles and triplets.
20 mins of "song challenge".....where I pick songs that keep my chops up.
10 mins buzz Rolls.
Not in that order......but I feel I'm missing out on heaps of other stuff.
How do you guys prioritise your practice routine?
